## FlowPaper Reviews
  ### 1. Great alternative if you don't want to get locked in

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dan B. | Course Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 02, 2025

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

FlowPaper provides great options for anyone who doesn't like getting locked in to cloud subscriptions

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

It took a bit of time before I figured out how to self host publications, but no biggie in the end

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Publishing educational brochures for our courses

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Great to hear that you are happy with the flexibility that we offer

  ### 2. Easy to Use and Flexible—No Lock-In Like ISSUU or Flipsnack

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 04, 2025

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Its easy to use and does not lock you in like ISSUU and Flipsnack

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I have nothing that bothers me at the moment

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Publish brochures, catalogs

  ### 3. Professional and easy to use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cassandra O. | Design Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Dropping a pdf into the program is super easy, I like that you can add links right onto specific parts of a page. The reading experience is great, and customizable - also works for reverse bound books. It's not an overly complicated program so is easy to get a hang of.
 
For an indie manga magazine it's has been perfect. We can create a seamless and emersive experience for our customers without breaking the bank, or our brains.

The fact that "Zine" is an affordable one time fee was perfect for a tiny and risky startup. I personally dislike subscriptions, especially at that early stage and this was the only one I found so it was a quick "yes".
A few years later I was able to show it to a partner working on a similar, but more successful startup and he loved it! Now we have the Creative teir and have lot's of flip books to make. Part of why we got this teir was the fact that Flowpaper will host your flip books and we can both work from our own, distant computers and tag team them.

Whoever replies to Flowpaper emails is very, responsive, kind and helpful which is quite a bonus!

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

Logging into the program is weirdly difficult.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a magazine and indie book publisher , Flow paper allows us to bring the experience of reading our books physically, into the online space. Physically printing everything we have is preventatively expensive and many of our readers would like access on the go but scrolling isn't the experience we want to provide.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Many thanks for taking the time to write this review! We are working on improving the login so that it's easier to log in using your Google or Facebook as an alternative. Hopefully this will make it faster to log in going forward

  ### 4. Great product at a great price!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Pam F. | Marketing and Financial Development Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 16, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

FlowPaper makes it very easy for us to update and share our Program Guide for our facility. We produce 3 per year and can easily replace the existing content. Flowpaper fits our budget - and actually saves us money because we no longer need to produce printed copies. Our members and guests can easily navigate to  the online digital version! We were easily able to integrate FlowPaper into our website as well as via a QR code on flyers to direct people to FlowPaper to view all of our offerings.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

We have not yet found any down sides to this product!

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We no longer print our Winter/Spring, Summer, and Fall Program Guides - so this saves us a TON of money. Plus most people want to find all the info online anyway. So this saves us time as well as money.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Many thanks for your kind words! We hope you continue to enjoy using FlowPaper

  ### 5. Excellent vendor that offers options unavailable with others in this market

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Walker R. | Creative Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

The key feature that attracted us is the option to receive the full HTML5 code that we can then self-host. After being burned by a different vendor that closed after 20 years, we had to rebuild our online library of issues and did not want to commit our online publications to another third-party vendor. The self-hosting option was the deal-maker for us.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I haven't managed to master the software to do conversions of some of our own internal, smaller publications.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They convert our organization magazine to a fully-responsive version. We create our own flipbook version, but use Flowpaper's services to create the responsive version that our members can more easily read on mobile devices.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Many thank you for your review! 

  ### 6. Fantastic product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kathryn C. | Marketing Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 20, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

FlowPaper is a fantastic tool for turning PDFs into interactive documents. It's very user-friendly, offering simple implementation and customization to match our company's brand identity. The responsive design and fast loading times are top-notch. Flowpaper is really easy to use and integrate into your other marketing pieces, and it's been a huge-time saver for our digital catalog and other sales pieces. The few times I've contacted customer service, they have been quick to response and helpful. Highly recommend!

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

One area where it could improve is the process of replacing individual pages within an existing publication. While it's possible, the process can be more time-consuming than desired, especially for larger documents.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creating interactive, professional looking flipbooks of various marketing pieces. Incredibly fast to implement and produces a polished product to share with customers.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Great to see FlowPaper coming to good use in your organisation! Don't hesitate to contacting us if you ever need any assistance!

  ### 7. FlowPaper enhances our clients' content by integrating interactive flipbooks and catalogs.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ruslan V. | CEO, CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

As a web development agency, we’ve successfully integrated FlowPaper into various client projects. For an LMS designed to enhance the reading experience for schoolchildren, FlowPaper seamlessly converted static PDFs into engaging flipbooks that work perfectly across all devices. Additionally, we’ve used FlowPaper to create interactive catalogs for a wallpaper factory, effectively attracting and retaining users for over a decade. The platform’s ease of use, reliability, and responsive design make it versatile across industries. Customer support has been exceptional, ensuring smooth implementation and ongoing success. We use FlowPaper regularly and plan to continue utilizing it in future projects.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

While FlowPaper has been a fantastic addition to our project, we have a few suggestions that could further expand its use cases. Specifically, for our integration, having API access to the textbook’s table of contents would be highly valuable, and the development team has expressed openness to exploring this in future releases. Additionally, a feature for restricted viewing of a few textbook pages for demo purposes would be a great enhancement. These improvements could make FlowPaper even more adaptable to our educational needs.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

FlowPaper solves the challenge of transforming static PDFs into engaging, interactive digital publications, such as flipbooks and catalogs. This benefits us by allowing seamless integration into our clients’ digital workflows, enhancing their content’s visual appeal and accessibility across devices. It also improves user engagement and retention, particularly in educational and commercial projects, while providing a reliable and easy-to-use solution that we can consistently apply to various industries.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Thats a great review! Thanks for providing so much detail. We're working on a API which will provide quite a lot of features for cases like yours and we'll make sure to keep you in the loop!

  ### 8. Great service - use it regularly

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Public Relations and Communications | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 04, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

The service brings documents and reports to life. Selling the design to the client becomes so much easier with a little interaction, rather than showing a static, flat PDF. It's easy to use, I use it frequently, and I couldn't recommend it more.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I wish there were the possibility to create tri-fold brochures (especially full page tri-folds).

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It brings documents and reports to life and allows my firm to sell to the client with much greater success than a static, flat PDF. It demonstrates better how the document will look on print, which is key in the approval process.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Thank you for your review! We do actually have a tri fold template that we can add to the suite so please check in with us and we can tell us how to get access to it

  ### 9. Easy to use and friendly customer service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 28, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

It was easy to import my PDF and also to publish. I was happy with the way I could customize my publication and then upload it to their cloud and get a useable link straight away

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

So far it has been straightforward, but I haven't tried the different templates yet, so I don't know how easy to use those are.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I work with clients to produce online digital publications and FlowPaper makes it easy for me to do that for my clients

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review. We really appreciate it. 

  ### 10. A Minimal Investment for Stunning Results

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Beth G. | Marketing Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 16, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

I appreciate how easy the product is to use for the visual results that you get. I use it for almost every digital asset we have because it creates a high-quality presentation with minimal effort.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I always have a hard time figuring out where to duplicate a past ezine. Generally, I end up rebuilding from scratch.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It gives us a tool to present our collateral assets in a clean, easy-for-the-user to use format.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Thank you for your feedback - we'll make sure to add the ability to duplicate publications to our coming versions 

  ### 11. Flowpaper is an out-of-the-box E-publication Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Donovan M. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 20, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Flow paper is simple to use and versatile for for multiple projects.  What I pay annually for Flowpaper is what I used to pay monthly for the same service.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

The one downside is erasing saved E-publications, it must be done one at a time rather than a UX where you could checkmark pubs to delete.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It saves me a fortune making Flipbooks

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> Grea to hear that you're happy with our service! 

  ### 12. Excellent product and customer service and tech support is outstanding!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 28, 2024

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

As a non technical person, having used this product for many yeards, I found FlowPaper very intuitive and extremely easy to use.  It has all of the features and format that you'd expect and then some. The ebooks were also easy to impement and  integrate on my website. Above all though, was the prompt tech support that I received from Erik, despite the time difference.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

It met all of my expectations and honestly cannot think of a better option.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy way to display our teaching flip charts on our online store

  ### 16. Flow Paper top of list; flip book technology

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Heather S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2023

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Among the flip book offerings on the market, FlowPaper is one of the more user-friendly interfaces, provides tutorials that are actually easy to follow and understand, and allows you to get started presenting your documents more quickly.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I would have liked to have more pages available in the free introductory trial to fully test documents in a flipping format.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am a small non-profit marketing/communications manager, with a staff of one. A pricing scale that flexes from small to large is helpful.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> We're thrilled that you find FlowPaper easy to use, and we're glad the tutorials have been helpful! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the free trial—we'll definitely keep your feedback in mind as we work on future improvements.

  ### 17. Very user-friendly with professional and polished results

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Johnna D. | Communication Manager, Hospital & Health Care, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 19, 2023

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

I really appreciate how user-friendly FlowPaper is. I am not a designer, but had no problem uploading a PDF and creating a professional quality final product.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

The user interface feels a bit dated visually. That said, it did not detract from the final product or the usability of the too.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

FlowPaper allowed us to create a beautiful digital flipbook for a one-time project in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> We really appreciate the honest feedback and thanks for posting a review! Means a lot!

  ### 18. Very Amazing Tool FlowPaper

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sunaina Y. | Digital Marketer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 22, 2023

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

I really like to use FlowPaper everytime I want to make attractive and creative designs for my projects.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I literally don't dislike FlowPaper because my overall experience working with this was very fantastic.

  ### 19. Great tool to present your PDF's on the Internet

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 11, 2022

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

FlowPaper Zine is a highly customizable and easy-to-use software. It provides some of the best and fast features to publish or share PDF documents online in a very creative way with different printing styles, downloading options, and many more. When compared to other similar software like Flipbook,  FlowPaper provides the fastest performance to browse and open catalogs.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

First of all that I was disappointed with was the Interface. Sometimes it is really hard to find the buttons because of improper spacing between them. 
FlowPaper needs to fix some thumbnail glitches too.

**Recommendations to others considering FlowPaper:**

It can be the best tool if you have more than a single domain to publish on the internet.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have been using Flowpaper to secure my sensitive documents so that they cannot be copied by any suspicious user over the Internet. FlowPaper is providing the best services with favorable pricing.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> We're glad to hear that you find FlowPaper Zine highly customizable and easy-to-use. We appreciate your feedback about the interface and thumbnail glitches. These things have been fixed since your review was posted. Thank you for choosing FlowPaper to secure your sensitive documents!

  ### 20. FlowPaper just makes my life easier

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Zachariah K. | Debt Counsellor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 01, 2021

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

We have used Yumpu and Issuu in the past and FlowPaper just does things those services can't.
FlowPaper has some amazing features beyond just creating a flipbook (which is what most other similar services only do).
FlowPaper can help you change your PDFs into interactive magazines that work on tablets and phones. Their resizing is very smart.
They help keep your "look" while focusing on naming it reader friendly.

They allow you to lock in adverts so that they look the same while allowing you to chose to make your pages responsive. Very smart and works 99% of the time without you having to adjust too much...but you can if you want. The other features and options are great for making content for the next generation of readers on their phones and tablets.

Also has a nice menu feature to make it easy for people to jump around your publications.
This is a flipbook service that does a lot more than just flipbooks. Come for the flipbooks and stay for the other features and options.


Team are also good at getting back to you.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

Dashboard lacks stats tracking which is very important (especially if you have advertisers who want to know who read what and for how long).
This is an area they are working on.

Would like to be able to drag and drop (reorganise) the dashboard of publications into different subfolders etc but this is not really a common feature on other similar products so would just be a 'nice to have'.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Presenting our magazine in the best most reader friendly way to our readers.
Adjusting content to the size of different devices while still maintaining the style of our publication.

  ### 21. Worst possible editing experience

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Recreational Facilities and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2021

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Automatic import, rendering, a bunch of options.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

The editing experience is just awful. Mainly adding links to text. 
-The text changes color, jumps to different places.
-The HTML tags are added to the text when a link is added?
-Sometimes text just disappears, and it is impossible to retrieve it. When adding a new element, impossible to make it the original layout. Also copy and pasting elements don't work.
-Sometimes CRTL+Z (undo) doesn't work
-When reimporting a single page, it reimports the whole document. LOSING ALL MAKE CHANGES
-Unable to properly save, to backup something. Once overwritten, impossible to go back

Hours and hours are wasted to the editing, while it could be an amazing product.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Publishing text documents on webpages, with links.

  ### 22. Flow Paper - Convert your PDF to digital

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Graphic Design | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2021

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Flow Paper has a pretty simple user interface. You can take a PDF to create a flipbook-style digital document, or you can create a responsive, adaptable digital copy (more of a web page that is responsive to mobile and desktop). The conversion process is straightforward to learn; you don't need much experience in coding or web languages. I like the fact that if you need to create a simple digital document, you can achieve that. It also has this auto-populate feature where it takes your PDF and converts it by itself.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

For my application, I used the Flow Paper conversion to a digital responsive format. In my opinion, quite a few features are lacking. I wanted to create a template because, for my application, I would need to post a digital document every week. Still, Flow Paper doesn't have a customizable template I can create - I would therefore have to re-create elements that repeat every week all the time. The customization tools could also use a little revamping. The user experience on specific tools isn't exact.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a company, we are trying to use FlowPaper to create digital bulletins. Usually, the client generates the content, so they provide a PDF that needs to be converted into a digital document. We are trying to create a responsive and adaptable bulletin, but the process isn't efficient. Many things can be automated, so the conversion process is quicker - FlowPaper is the right tool, but it doesn't have all the features to help us achieve our optimal output.

**Official Response from Erik Engström:**

> We're glad to hear that you find FlowPaper's user interface simple and the conversion process straightforward. We appreciate your feedback on the lack of customizable templates. We have improved the ability to customize your templates further since your review was posted so have a look at it now and you'll see more customization options for your templates!

  ### 23. Best PDF Platform for a large book

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2021

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Flowpaper was easy to set up, and gives people the feeling of reading an actual book even though it's digital. We were able to use this for a 400+ page book and still have it be very readable.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

It would be great for people to be able to save a spot in the book, or to be able to copy text from the book.

**Recommendations to others considering FlowPaper:**

Easy to use and great features, but would be great to have a web only app so you don't need to download anything, and if annual invoicing was possible as well.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to offer a digital version of a physical book that's easy to navigate and read online.

  ### 24. Seems decent enough

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2021

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Nice animation, intuitive navigation of pdf

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

I bought a license and then realized the wordpress app didnt seem to require one. This was not very clear in the marketing.

**Recommendations to others considering FlowPaper:**

Get clarity on the difference between the wordpress plugin and the server install php files

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helps my client present their documents in an attractive way. Original pdf downloads were not engaging enough for users.

  ### 25. Good PDF publishing tool online

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ezequiel Z. | Coordinador Sistema de Gestión, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2019

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

This software is very good for publishing PDF files online with a variety of customization options. There are good templates and it is very easy to load brands and colors. The resulting conversions are excellent.

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

Although it is available on mobile devices, the interface is very inefficient because it is very slow and it does not have all the options of the desktop version.

**Recommendations to others considering FlowPaper:**

It is an excellent tool for publishing PDF documents and also has printing, downloading and other things.

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Flowpaper serves as a publication tool for sharing PDF documents where we have to put quality management documents online every month.

  ### 26. Excellent Digital Magazines

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Recreational Facilities and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2018

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

No monthly hosting fee! Software can be on desktop. Very easy to install, use, upgrade.  Great cost.  A few options for the layout and flip motion. Very smooth graphics. Professional and high quality. I love this software!

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

If you choose to use the desktop version, you need to set up an FTP to your host site. Not a big deal, but I had to get IT involved. 

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use it for our Staff Handbook, Leadership Development Handbook, and we're planning on using it for our Marketing publications. Our PDF's are more enjoyable to read, and HR has a better brand because we're publishing items with a 'wow' factor.  

  ### 27. Helps beautify your content so readers are more engaged!

**What do you like best about FlowPaper?**

Flow paper was easy to use and allowed me to transform my reports into something that partners and readers were really actually captivated by (as opposed to our usualy black and white standard wordy reports). Everyone loved it! 

**What do you dislike about FlowPaper?**

The free trial is a bit limited -- meaning you can only use it for a few pages of design. I wish it was a little more comprehensive, like other free graphic design tools out there. 

**Recommendations to others considering FlowPaper:**

Give it a shot! Flowpaper is great to use even just for that one special report you have to crank out and want to be beautiful -- and who knows, maybe you'll get hooked too! 

**What problems is FlowPaper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I was having trouble finding a good platform for report and publication design - and Flowpaper was an easy solution with beautiful results. Additionally - the collaborative pieces of the software are excellent! I've had trouble working with other softwares on projects that involve colleagues but flowpaper helped solve that for us, with the collaborative annotations.
